Dick's at it again

[BehindBlueI's]

OK,

Maybe just me, but I find that to be more interesting than Dick's.

I've never shopped tehre and never will. They've always been anti-firearm. Bunch of dicks.

One of the young men working at a Dick's gun counter resigned due to the change in policy.

This resignation letter should give us all hope for the next generation.

This young man should get employed at his local gun shop.

REI also joined the anti-gun club.
Not sure if it was posted elsewhere.

[FONT=&quot]Outdoor retailer REI plans to discontinue sales of five brands after customers pressured the company to sever its relationship with a major manufacturer with close ties to the National Rifle Association.
[/FONT][FONT=&quot]REI announced Thursday evening it would halt orders of products from Vista Outdoors, whose brands include CamelBak (maker of popular water bottles), Bell (known for its bicycle helmets), and Giro (a ski goggle manufacturer).[/FONT]

They will stop selling bicycle hemets, because the company making those helmet is linked to the NRA ... and apparently the NRA sends its members to kill children in schools.

With a dicks thread i knew the French would show up soon

This is all good news in my eyes because it will allow more profit to go to pro gun businesses. They aren't preventing these items from being sold. They are just making people go to other businesses. Win

Cancelled my credit card with them several years ago, I may buy from them one or twice a year, well that will stop. Agree with TT's comment above.

We don't have a Dick's store down here. We have a Dunham's. I've never bought much from them as they're usually not very competitive and their gun counter is often un-manned when I'd like to look at something. They used to carry MSRs. Does anyone know if they've jumped on the Ban-train too? (Just curious).

He should go to school and learn about the Constitution. If you disagree with the store, fine, but don't inaccurately cite the constitution as your excuse.

Where does he inaccurately cite the constitution in this letter?

Is the policy newly adopted by Dick's constitutionally wrong? He has an argument with morally, but not constitutionally.

Are laws against public accomodations discriminating against people based on their age, race, religion, country of origin, etc. constitutional? Despite what SCOTUS has decided in the past, I believe they are unconstitutional. Theoretically, a business owner should be free to do business with whomever s/he wishes. But that's not the water we're swimming in right now. We have law that says a public accommodation cannot discriminate against anyone based on their age.

Why not? Where in the 2a does it state an age for the right to bear arms? It doesn't.

Law or no law, it's not a constitutional infringement just because someone doesn't want to sell you something you want.

Because they did not pass a law, they changed store policy. That has nothing to do with the Constitution.

The 2nd Amendment, which is part of the Bill or Rights, was designed by the founders to protect the people from who, exactly? There's you answer.

Wait. So if someone posts a sign "Jews not welcomed here" or "We don't serve blacks" that's not ok. But if they (more or less) post a sign that we won't sell to you based on your age, that is?

It should be.
